Thai policymakers are grappling with a rapidly cooling property market in the country’s capital. Overseas demand for Bangkok priorities, particularly from China, is lending some support as indebted Thais pull back, reported Financial Times (19 September 2019). Apartment purchases by Chinese buyers rose 66 per cent last year to Bt39.2bn. Juwai.com, a website geared to Chinese buyers of property overseas, reported this year that its users made more enquiries about Thailand than any other country, accounting for 30.3 per cent of searches on the platform.
